Chen Gengke didn't know what was going on between Zhang Zongping and Zhang Zilu, the father and daughter, and at this moment he was standing in front of Alex Goodrich, staring at each other's faces: "Alex, tell me, what happened in Detroit's politics." ”

"Nothing ......"

Alex Goodrich tried his best to pretend to be indifferent, but he quickly gave up, because Chen Geng suddenly smiled, with a cold smile: "Just now, a guy who came out of nowhere warned me not to touch politics, Alex, don't tell me you didn't see it, and don't tell me you don't know why this happened, otherwise I will be very disappointed." ”

For all politicians, especially small and medium-sized politicians, if the behind-the-scenes financier is disappointed in what he did, it will really be the sky falling, and Alex Goodrich is of course no exception. ”

"Two vacancies? That's it?" Chen Geng couldn't believe it.

There was a shortage of two councillors in the city council, Chen Geng knew that some time ago, about a week ago, two members of the city council drank together, drank too much, and the two idiots also rode in the same car, but they went directly into the river and died.

At that time, after reading this report, Chen Geng just smiled, and after reading it, he didn't take it seriously, but ...... It's just that there are just two city council vacancies, and some people are just worried that their buddies will run for this damn city councilor, and they will even find someone to threaten Lao Tzu?

What is incredible, incomprehensible, this is incredible, this is incomprehensible, even if it is a state councilor, I can understand it, but you are just a city councilor?!

"What do you think will happen?" Alex Goodrich spread his hands, "It's as simple as that. ”

After a pause, seeing that his big benefactor seemed to be a little unable to understand the logic of Qingqi here, Alex Goodrich simply explained to Chen Geng: "For a rich man like you, of course you don't care about the position of a city councilor, and you don't ......look down on it at all."

Chen Geng nodded slightly.

Alex Goodrich is telling the truth, with Chen Geng's current wealth, let alone two city councilors, few officials in Detroit City Hall, large and small, dare to provoke him Chen, he really won't put a city councilor in his eyes, no way, Chen is rich, in the United States, rich is the uncle - at this moment, Chen should sing "Capitalism is good, capitalism is good, and the status of capitalists in capitalist countries is high......"

Seeing that his big benefactor did not mean to be annoyed, Alex Goodrich breathed a sigh of relief, and continued: "But for many people, especially for some wealthy middle-class people with a small fortune and an annual income of more than $20,000, and those who aspire to earn money by taking the political line, this is a rare opportunity;

It is also a great opportunity for the younger generation of their families to get a head start in politics for small, medium and small political families......"

"Wait a minute," Chen Geng interrupted Alex Goodrich, "what do you mean by 'small and medium-sized political families'?"

It's not that Chen Geng deliberately interrupted Alex Goodrich's words, it's that he really doesn't understand the political ecology of the United States.

"Small and medium-sized political families...... Well, how do you say that?" Alex Goodrich thought for a moment and said, "You know the Addams, the Kennedys, and the Bushes, right?"

How could Chen Geng not know about these three famous top political families in the United States?

The Adams family is the first and so far the only political family in American political history to produce a "father-son president": his father Adams Sr. became the president of the United States, and a few years later his son Adams Jr. also became the president of the United States;

The Kennedy family, the world's perception of the Kennedy family, may be that President Kennedy was assassinated in 1963, and Kennedy also became an iconic unlucky president, but this did not affect the status of the Kennedy family in American politics in the slightest: President Kennedy's brothers are all influential in American politics, John F. Kennedy's brother Robert Kennedy served as a senator and U.S. attorney general. Kennedy was the Senator of the Senators, the Upper House of the U.S. Congress, and served as a Senator for 47 years — Edward Kennedy was one of five senators in U.S. history who had been a senator for more than 40 years, and Edward Kennedy ran for president, but he didn't succeed.

As for the Bush family, which is the most "infamous" compared to the Adams family and the Kennedy family, don't look at the current Bush family has not yet produced a president, and the Bush family has not become the second "father-son president" family in American political history after the Adams family, but it can't stand the deep influence of people in American politics. In addition to being a steel and oil tycoon, P. Bush also served as president of the National Merchants Association and an adviser to President Hoover. George H.W. Bush's father, Prescott Bush, served as a U.S. Senate member for more than 20 years and was close friends with President Dwight D. Eisenhower.

As for the current Bush Sr., he has served as a member of the US Congress, ambassador to the United Nations, director of the CIA and other important positions, and in the next general election, the elder Bush will be re-elected as vice president for two consecutive terms during the Reagan administration, and successfully became the president of the United States in the 1989 election.

As for George W. Bush, last year, that is, in 1978, he was already running for the state House of Representatives in his home base: Texas - although he didn't succeed, but he couldn't stand the success of others in the future - and finally George W. Bush's own brother: Jeb Bush, this guy is not a good guy, and he will be re-elected governor of Florida for two terms in the future.

He waited for Alex Goodrich to continue.

"Big families like the Adams, Kennedy, and Bush families are the most influential and entrenched families in the American political landscape," Alex Goodrich said, "but there is another kind of political ecology outside of this big family, such as the fact that generations of this family have their own influence in the political map of a certain state, and the grandfather is a state legislator, the father is a state legislator, and the son is very likely to become a state legislator in the future."

This kind of political influence cannot be limited to the whole of the United States, and is limited to a single state political family, even if it is a medium-sized political family; and if you take a step back, the political family whose influence is limited to one city, but has a huge influence on the city for decades, even if it is a small, medium-sized political family. ”

Chen Geng smacked his lips: "So you mean that there is a medium-sized political family in Michigan, or a small political family in Detroit, eyeing these two vacancies?"

"Yes," Alex Goodrich nodded, "The Edward family, the current director of the Detroit Public Service Bureau, wants to make his younger brother a city councilor, and the state Senate Vice Speaker Davis, who wants his second son's political career to start with a Detroit city councilor." ”

it!

If it were just the Edwards, but this is another vice president of the Michigan Senate?!

To be honest, Chen Geng has a bit of a headache - this can also understand why Cheng Gui dared to jump in front of him and shout, although I don't know who this guy is playing for, but there is no doubt that it is either the Edward family or the Davis family, but considering the position of the Davis family, Chen Geng feels that people may not be able to look at him as a small Chinese boss...... He is undoubtedly more likely to be Edward's man.

"Actually, I didn't have much interest in the selection of this councilor," Chen Geng said slowly: "This councillor likes to be whomever he likes, who loves to do whom, as long as I don't delay making money, it doesn't matter to me who fills the gap between these two councillors......

Alex Goodrich's face was overjoyed!

Director Edward is his main assistant, he has also communicated with himself before, if he supports his brother to become a city councilor, he is willing to vigorously support his work, now it is okay, his big benefactor has no intention of clashing with the landlord, this is the best news, Alex Goodrich nodded busily: "OK, OK, I will tell them the good news......"

"No, Alex, you misunderstood me," Chen Geng waved his hand, meaning to listen to me: "I really didn't care who would fill these two vacancies and become the new councillor before, but the last thing I liked was that others threatened me......"

Alex Goodrich's heart trembled, what was the situation? and quickly explained: "Sir, listen to me, this is a misunderstanding......

"I don't care if it's a misunderstanding or not, I just know there's a fool...... I don't care who the idiot is...... If you dare to threaten me, then there is nothing to say, I am really going to book one of these two vacant seats!" Looking at Alex Goodrich, Chen Geng said with a smile: "Alex, you support me, right?"

"This ...... Yes, of course ......"

The smile on Alex Goodrich's face was uglier than crying.

Mr. Fernández said that one of the two vacated seats in parliament is going to be decided, and Alex Goodrich has no doubt about the economic strength of his big benefactor, so the question is, who will be kicked out of the Edward family and the Davis family?
